The Quest. It begins!

The Quest has started in New Zealand, with four beers I've never had. I've avoided Steinlager because it's what yuppie bogans drank when I lived in Sydney in the 80s, so I never drank it.

Tui is one I've heard Bad Things About but I need to decide for myself.

The two Monteith's beers I'm sure are yummy because everything I've tried from that brewery so far, is yummy.

The Dan Murphy's had quite a few other NZ beers but I've tried them before -- I still have some bottles of Montheith's Black and Summer Ale in the fridge. They even have six-packs of Speight's, but I have no desire to subject myself to that again. Ever.
